EG really made the Ursa useless with all the forcestaff, glimmer etc used on their heroes.

Ursa just can't kill shit even with blink and bkb.

I am not an EG fan but I really think that they could win TI. OG are fantastic of course but I could totally see a team TNCing them again at TI. Hell it could be TNC again.

EG just seem a lot stronger when they are firing on all cylinders.

i think og is more consistent than eg, but i think nobody has truly figured out 7.06b yet either way

Anyone have that issue where the game immediately shuts down as you try to start it?

Having it again lol, had it a few times a week or two ago.

edit - nm, booted up another game, then tried dota again. Worked. What the fuck.
 
I do. They were dark days.

Remember lol SEA though?

I mean, it still kind of is. TNC is inconsistent, Clutch got dumpstered, and Faceless is finally living up to the hype generated when they first formed. I mean, would you say the region with TNC and Faceless is stronger, or the one with EG, NP, Thunderbirds, and DC? (not to mention coL and Team Freedom/isGG).
 
I think by now EG, OG, VP, iG and Liquid are shoe-ins for direct invites (Liquid won Starladder). If Valve invite six and not eight the last one will be between Newbee and NP (unless someone completely unexpected wins Epicenter). Zotac might actually be more important than I was expecting as both NP and Newbee are attending that.

Why the fuck is there not a vote option to kick players in pubs?

Because I'm tired of these trash LCs decided to feed gems and duels and rapiers to the other team and ruining won games.

Did you recently apply the windows creators update? Having the same issue after installing it and I've tried launching a few games and it still doesn't work...

Working during Memorial day is so zzz, especially when the pharmacy closes at 6 and I have to be here until 9. Haven't had a customer in over an hour.

At least I parked in a spot that most people won't see and will hopefully think we're closed.
 
I always ban lc in games. lc is annoying to play with or against.

Most LC's are comically bad so it's more about risking having said comically bad hero on your team. I rarely see people play LC well. It's basically what Pudge was like 2 years ago before a lot of the buffs he got. Pops up in 2/3 of games and the person playing him was always an idiot.

Danish Bears is the former C9 squad with 747 mid (Ryze, Ace, Hestejoe, NoiA, 747). WGU sucks but I recognize Kang and Nana from the Boston Major. I have literally never heard of Singularity, but they won the Open Qualifier to get into the European Qualifier and beat NiP, Empire, and Prodota 2-0 quite convincingly to qualify.

Kind of interesting that DC got to replace isGG rather than someone like coL who played in the actual qualifier and finished as a Semifinalist.

CoL.Beef said they wanted Feero's US visa to be processed properly and to set him up in the team house & comfortable etc.
That was more important than coming last place at a LAN that they obviously were not prepared for.

Their goal is TI7 qualifiers. #laserfocused
